I’ve looked at Peertube, Dtube and Odyssee, but frankly, I don’t like them because there is some questionable content on those sites.
While I can understand that to a degree, keep in mind:
Any true alternative to the big sites, especially if they censor less, will always first attract the fringe and those who would get themselves banned on the big platforms. Even if it was for good reasons. These days, that seems to mean religious nutjobs and right-wing conspiracy theorists.
Honestly, that was a bit of a wise crack. What I am doing with those two things (plus a number of other that are required these days, notably for DKIM) is running my own mail server.
Fair warning: Doing that costs money, time and effort, and messing it up can lead to… interesting results. (You usually don’t want “interesting” for something as fundamental as your email.)
If you are still interested, join us in selfhosted@lemmy.world. (Still figuring out how to properly link to a community on lemmy. In the meantime, look for it under “Communitys”.)
The postfix mail server can be found here: https://www.postfix.org/
The Cyrus IMAP server can be found here: https://www.cyrusimap.org/
Additionally, I also use roundcube so I can have a web interface for email.
I’m using a combination of Postfix and Cyrus IMAPd.
Granted, probably not what OP was asking for, but privacy wise, this is almost certainly more water tight than any of the other options.
Rimworld for me.
(I have never tried Dwarf Fortress.)
Honorable mention goes to War Thunder, while it isn’t on of my favorites, I was still a bit blown away to find out it runs natively on Linux.
